FAQs
- What devices does this work on?
- By design, if this feature is enabled for a vendor, the “Scan Item” feature will only be available if the user is on a device that has an onboard camera.
- Does this work with item codes?
- No. This feature requires that the item’s SKU be setup in the SKU field on the item and we are not looking at the codes configured on the Codes tab at this time.
- Do I need to enter the full barcode?
- Yes. Interact Web looks at all the numbers present on the barcode and uses that, so any digits present need to be reflected in the SKU field.
- What kinds of barcodes does this work with?
- This should support the scanning of UPCs and QR codes. This will not work with EANs or ISBNs.
-
What is the QR Code on the order confirmation page?
-
The QR code maps to the Local Order ID for the order in Connect (not the number printed underneath the QR code). This is used to support scanning from the KDS or AX if a customer chooses to have personnel positioned at the exits of a location to scan and “process” orders to Completed to track who has paid to limit fraud.
